Sometimes it's difficult taking selfies with your pets, but with one simple tool like the selfie stick, you can get various cool looking images. From cats on your lap, to puppies running around, these photos can be the most precious ones.

Check out some angles using the selfie stick with your phone below!

Getting these types of overhead shots are rare. The selfie stick allows more flexibility in which you can extend and quickly snap! At first, your pet may think it's a new toy as well, and it certainly gets their attention.

You could be standing in front of your dog and have the selfie stick upside down to get this angle. It's for those closeup shots you can treasure forever.

This is a great one where you hold the selfie stick farther out and be "in" the photo still. Usually from this angle, you would have to have someone else take the picture. It can be a nice canvas for your home as well!

How cool is this shot taken with an iPhone 5s on the selfie stick. You can lower the stick all the way down on the grass as your phone stays mounted, and click away.

There are many ways to manipulate this tool to get the desired photo you want. If you haven't tried out the selfie stick yet with your pets, you should! Get great photos and make a collection of memories.

That's what I used to do when I saw other people using a selfie stick. It looks ridiculous right? Not until you actually try it and experience it on your own, don't be so quick to knock it out just yet. Millions of people travel everyday, and I'm sure many of you have been asked to be a "photographer" at some point, and have also asked strangers and passers to take your photo, too.

With the vast popularity of selfie sticks, you don't have to worry about that anymore. It comes with great pros and you can travel freely without bothering anyone to take your photo. And being a photographer, sometimes you don't want to lug around your big camera and 5 extra lenses. If you prefer less baggage and versatility when capturing photos, all you need is a selfie stick, and your smart phone.

See how people have used the selfie stick while traveling.

Isn't this a cool group shot? Getting ready to sail off somewhere, and you're able to snap a quick one with the selfie stick. It would be much more complex trying to use your arms, and the photo wouldn't look as wide with a nice background. You can also attach the "fish-eye lense" gadget to get these type of shots.

Traveling SOLO allows you to express freely, and what better way to document it than on the beach, or anywhere for that matter. It's not about being narcissistic, but making this a moment you will remember. You get to enjoy it, and look back on where you've gone, and what you've seen. Not a lot of people get to do this.

Backpacking and strolling new city streets with some friends is an unforgettable experience, too. You can't ask a stranger to take photos for you all day long, so, take it into your own hands with the selfie stick. Plus, you can capture restaurant and food, or architectural buildings in many ways. Wherever there is a good scene, it's only a click away.

It's time to utilize this cool travel tool to make your experiences so much more special. Don't mind the uncanny looks or laughs from people-they don't know what they're missing!

Say hello to the infamous selfie stick! You may see a lot of these around, but how do you take a killer selfie with it? Of course, the main purpose is to get all the right angles, and you can finally brush up on your selfie taking skills! Here are the 3 Ways to Take a Killer Selfie:

1. Wide Group Selfies - Hooray to no more cropped images of friends, family, or co-workers. When taking a family trip, business trip, or just a day trip with your friends, we tend to ask a complete stranger to take photos for us. You want to include everyone in your photo, and maybe a little background, too, but sometimes things get cropped out because of your reach. An easier solution: the selfie stick! It's so easy to just pop your phone on and off, and capture these treasured moments. So, for your next group photo, have the selfie stick ready!

2. 45 Degree Angle Selfies - Okay, maybe you never have taken this type of selfie before, but do have that one friend that does. She takes selfies from a 45 degree angle where she extends her arm out, and holds the camera phone 45 degrees above your face/head. Even a lot of models use this because it captures the perfect angle of their faces. Well, executing these shots have never been easier, and I don't know about you, but I have short arms, and the selfie stick allows me to extend as far as 7 1/4 inches up to 32 1/2 inches-fully extended. If the stick shows up in the photo at certain angles, you can easily crop, or photoshop it as well.

3. Overhead (Lay Down) Selfies - Most of us have done this at one point, and it quite never works unless you're doing a close-up shot. With the selfie stick, you can extend up, and quickly snap. They'll come out much more flawless than usual. Also, keep in mind to find the right angle when taking these, too. It's not just the selfie stick itself, but you controlling each shot!

We are living in the selfie era, and no matter where you go, or what you do, a selfie is a must! Some of you may hate the whole idea of selfies in general, I know my hubby gets tired of me taking them! But as soon as I pulled out this cool little gadget, he took it over and played with it. Now we carry our selfie stick in the car for when we are out and about and want to take our photo together. It's a much more positive experience when I'm not chasing him down to get his photo.

This seems to be the case for any camera shy person. I have a mom friend who tells me that she can never get her kids to smile for photos, let alone sit still long enough to even be in the photo. I told her about our selfie stick and showed her how to use it. She took it home and again, much like my husband, her kids were enamored with this "new toy". She gets plenty of photos now!

It has become a common way of taking photos in Europe (they even have corner street vendors selling them) and it is picking up here in the States quite fast. Sometimes your arms just can't reach overhead to get a good group shot, and the selfie stick does the deed. Once the stick is out, your friends will be amazed with this cool device. I'm pretty sure they'll want one, too. I remember showing a few of my photographer friends, and they laughed at it of course, but once they pressed that button, they were hooked.

So, you see why selfie sticks are the answer to your prayers? They are addicting to even the most camera shy kids, men, and friends. Imagine baby crying beforehand, and look at how still he will hold for you when he sees the selfie stick. It's now just more than just taking a photo. It's taking a photo with a gadget in hand. No matter how ridiculous you look, everyone just basically laughs it off. Why not? It's a global phenomenon that has become molded with this generation. Young or old, anyone can learn how to use one.
